I'm still alive, and I haven't disappeared off the face of the earth!

Well, it's been a while since I've posted ANYTHING.... I've been really busy lately =P but I thought I'd just kind of revisit and talk about how I've been feeling lately.

Life is so amazing. I am one blessed girl. I love my family. I love my friends-- I love sticking through the bad times with the people in my life. I love being happy with them through the good times. I love playing my 5-stringed, out of tune guitar (both of those disasters were my fault =P) before I go to bed. I love reading, especially from two awesome green books that I greatly enjoy. (Thanks again and again!! You know who you are ;) I love reading my Bible after that little midnight adrenaline rush that I usually get. I love doing awkward smile photoshoots with my sister (Denby loves you, darling!) I love listening to music all day. Well-- yeah, pretty much all day. Going crazy in my kitchen while my sister is watching me is great fun. (You should try it sometime ;) Heck, I didn't even mind doing math today... Pinterest is the love of my life. I have Spring fever. In February.

Shakespeare is great, isn't he?!? <3

...so now that I've gotten that out of my system.... well, randomness is better than nothing, I suppose. And I feel obligated to say SOMETHING, because I haven't in eons. Seriously. (If you'd like to hear more from me, try and convince my teachers to lay off the homework for a while.... I would support you.)

Well, another new thing in my life: NO DAIRY. Not an allergy, thankfully...just a bit of an intolerance. I've already cut out ice cream completely from my diet, among other things. (for those of you who know me well you know that ice cream is the love of my life) Though it's not too terribly difficult for the most part, I have random moments of sadness... Like when I was craving hot chocolate the other day (in a big way) only to find that it "contains milk." How the hell...? anyway....

ANOTHER thing that's happening in this little life of mine is Lent, obviously. Well, among other Lenten resolutions, I've undertaken the task of memorizing 1 Corinthians 13, and progress is going good so far! I love Corinthians, but especially chapter 13 :) It's really nice not having to go get my bible whenever I want to think about those verses; they're just a thought away! Maybe once I get chapter 13 down, I'll start memorizing something from Philippians... or Proverbs. (Suggestions, anyone? ;)

OKAY one of my new favorite songs: "Beautiful World" by the Chevin. Lovelovelove.

Well, it's been good to FINALLY post something again.... Have a beautiful day and a blessed Lent!! <3
